Owner Happy (Boris Karloff)) is a charming gangster whose
wife (Dorothy Revier) is having an affair with Krause (Russel
Hopton). John Rand (Lew Ayres) is a drunkard because his mother
(Hedda Hopper) killed his father. He's befriended by Ruth (Karloff's
FRANKENSTEIN co-star Mae Clarke), a dancer at the club. Ed Powell
(George Raft) is a sleazy suspicious character who tries to date
Ruth. I really didn't get the story line of the philosophical doorman
(Clarence Muse) with a sick wife and what happens to him. One gay
character calls a drunk Frankenstein! (That movie was made the year
before) The entire movie takes place in the club. Hobart Henley
directed this entertaining but ignored little gangster film from
Universal.
Thanks for readin!
